The upcoming 'Scary Movie' reboot, set for release in 2026, has generated buzz for its comedic take on pop culture figures, including Michael Jackson. According to early reports from entertainment news outlets, the film features a scene where a character dressed as Jackson is mocked, continuing the franchise's tradition of parodying celebrities.
Director and co-writer Keenen Ivory Wayans, who helmed the original 2000 film, has confirmed the film will target a range of icons. 'We're not holding back,' Wayans said in a recent interview, though specific details about the Jackson spoof remain limited.
The film is produced by Paramount Pictures and is scheduled for a summer 2026 release. No official trailer or full cast list has been released as of April 23, 2026.
